Everyone is welcome

Run by the community. Built for the community.

Spark runs on an army of volunteers and organisations who lean in with their time, their spaces and their support. If you'd like to be part of it, here's how.

Ways in

Want to be part of Spark?

There is no wrong way to show up. Pick whichever of these sounds like you – or tell us something we haven't thought of.

Host an event

A panel, workshop, dinner, social, pitch night or roundtable. Most of festival week is run by the community, not by Spark.

Open your space

If you have a venue, festival week is a great way to put it to use and get it in front of the ecosystem.

Volunteer

A few hours here and there is what makes the week happen. No experience needed, just enthusiasm.

Sponsor

As a not-for-profit and registered charity, every contribution goes directly toward keeping every event free and open to everyone.
